Saving money, losing feminist cred? (Spoilers for Ms. Marvel and Detective)

I'm thinking about dropping Ms. Marvel when Carol leaves the book.

It isn't that I have any problem with Moonstone taking over the title particularly; in any case I'm not up in arms about it to the point where I'd boycott the book. It's just that I'm not interested enough in her as a character to keep spending the money on it.

It's an economic decision. I'd be willing to keep paying to see Carol every month. I'm not willing to pay to see someone else. Simple as that.

However, this means that (with the cancellation of She-Hulk and Birds of Prey) I'll be down to only one title featuring a female character or characters: Wonder Woman. (Although maybe we can count Detective once Batwoman takes over? I had been planning to drop it after the current storyline, but will stick around for Kate.)

I don't choose my comics based on the gender of the featured character. I tend to choose them based on how interested I am in the featured character. (Story is not unimportant, but if I'm honest I have to admit that it's secondary to who is in the story.) I bought She-Hulk and Ms. Marvel because I like Jennifer and Carol. I'm buying the Oracle mini but might not have been willing to commit to an ongoing (however, I'd buy a Zinda series in a minute!). What I mean is that, while I won't automatically buy a book just because it features a female character, I do have daughters, and it doesn't hurt any.

Still, I can't help noticing these things and am vaguely saddened when they happen. Not saddened enough to keep buying a book about Moonstone. But saddened.
